Hair and Make Up Style Photos!

My most resent shoot took me to a new area in fashion photography, hair style and make up. In this shoot I was photographing for Hair Stylist Amanda Orchard and Hair Stylist/Make Up Artist Billy Peterson. Some hair styles are Amanda's and some Billy's, all make up was done by Billy. I'll label all info before each set.

That's the whole of the selected photos, I had a lot of fun doing this and hopefully in the future will be able to again. I even got to try out a cool lighting technique which worked really well for this. I found out the setup here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IoZ2yJHXV1Y from Karl Taylor Photography. I might not have the same level of gear, but I think I got it pretty close, big thanks to that tutorial. 

That's all for now!

Something A Little Different For Portraits

I'm very happy about this shoot, my first male model of the year, Colin Turnbull. I've known Colin for a while and I knew he would make for an interesting subject, and I was right. Since I was shooting a guy, the white background and soft colours didn't seem to fit, so this was shot of the black background with much success. There were about 90 shots in total and I had real hard time editing them down, cause they all made compelling or hilarious images, but alas here are my top 9, Colin however received all 90, sans background fixes on a disc, hope you enjoy them!
